1) Billy Bob drives 35.6km to work each day (down at the call center where he makes up random answers to people's internet problems), at 25.0m/s (ignore speeding up and slowing down; BillyBob belives in "pedal to the metal" and he doesn't believe in stop signs.) As the crow flies, he lives 17.66km due North from where he works. What is his average velocity on his drive to work?

The minimum distance required to stop a car moving at 35.0 mi/lh is 40.0 ft. What is the minimum stopping distance for the same car moving at 70.0 mi/h, assum- ing the same rate of acceleration?
Grant is an overzealous new driver, out for the first time without his mom. He stopped at a red lght on a country road-when the light turns green he takes off with an acceleration of 3.0 m/s^2. He manages to accelerate up to 30 m/s and travels at this top speed for three seconds before realizing he is approaching another red light. He immediatlely hits the brakes and slows to a stop in 7 seconds with constant acceleration. A. What is the car's acceleration while he is slowing down? B. Draw qualitatively accurate position, velocity, and acceleration graphs for Grant's motion. Your graph axes should mimic those below (one graph should be y axis as distance (x) and x axis time) (2nd graph should be y axis velocity and x-axis time) 3rd graph should be y axis acceleration and x axis time) C. What is the total distance that Grant travels between the two stop lights?
